What is Live-in Care?
Live-in care is a full-time home care solution where a trained carer lives in your home, providing round-the-clock assistance and reassurance.
Unlike residential care homes, live-in care enables individuals to stay in familiar surroundings, maintain routines, and enjoy a higher quality of life with personalised support.
At Thames Care, our live-in care service is flexible, discreet, and completely tailored to your needs. You remain in control while receiving expert care, companionship, and peace of mind.
Our Live-in Care Services Include:
Our care plans are built around your individual preferences, medical needs, and daily routines. We offer:
- Personal care – Including assistance with bathing, dressing, and hygiene.
- Companionship – Providing conversation, emotional support, and meaningful engagement.
- Meal preparation – Nutritious meals prepared to your dietary needs and preferences.
- Medication management – Prompting or administering medication safely and accurately.
- Light housekeeping – Keeping your living space clean, comfortable, and well-organised.
- Transportation & errands – Attending appointments, shopping, and social outings.
- Respite & holiday care – Short-term or emergency cover for family carers.
- Post-operative care – Support during recovery at home after hospital discharge.
Every element of your care is managed with dignity, respect, and professionalism.
